I like this one where hubby was "down with the grippe." [more likely overseas fighting the Axis] An early feminist approach at saving the baby with Eveready batteries.



I've been long puzzled by Pitney Bowes' "Is it always illegal to kill a woman?"

It may have been a line from a popular movie at that time: late 40's to early 50's. The woman sports an Ike jacket.

Then who can forget George Petty's Ridgid Tool calendar art?
